FRANCISCO and NEW YORK, Oct. 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CTIA
WIRELESS and Mobile Business Expo @ Interop -- Sybase iAnywhere
today announced that it will provide support for Apple iPhone
within its Information Anywhere(R) suite. Information Anywhere will
enable IT organizations to provide secure delivery of Lotus Domino
and Microsoft Exchange enterprise email to iPhone users. Sybase's
unique approach to providing enterprise support for the iPhone
reduces potential security concerns while still providing a rich
user experience utilizing the native iPhone mail application. "With
millions of iPhones sold in recent months, IT organizations are
challenged with how to manage the influx of these personal devices
coming 'in the back door' without compromising enterprise security
policies," said Mark Willnerd, vice president, Sybase iAnywhere.
"Information Anywhere provides a way for businesses to be proactive
in adding iPhone as a supported device, along with other mobile
operating systems, for secure corporate email use." Key advantages
include: -- Security: Information Anywhere's wireless email
solution will give users access to the rich native email client
provided on the iPhone without requiring an enterprise to enable
IMAP in their Lotus Domino or Microsoft Exchange environments. This
approach reduces potential security concerns with iPhone use in the
enterprise. In addition, Information Anywhere equips IT with
features to eliminate potential security risks, such as providing
filtering of attachments. -- Offline Email Access: Information
Anywhere's support of the native iPhone client provides a feature
rich and faster user experience than found with browser-based email
support. In addition, email is available for offline use. --
Personal Information Management (PIM) Data Support: Information
Anywhere provides secure access to PIM data, including corporate
directory look-up. -- Multi-device Support: Information Anywhere
addresses the demand corporations face to support a variety of
mobile devices. Sybase iAnywhere currently supports more than 230

Email Support: Information Anywhere supports both Lotus Domino and
Microsoft Exchange. "We are excited about the flexibility of Sybase
iAnywhere's wireless email solution. Mobile device diversity is a
fact of life with enterprise customers requiring support for a
variety of mobile platforms," said Jeroen van Dinther, technology
advisor mobile solutions, Capgemini. "With iPhone support,
Information Anywhere is an even more compelling offering for our
customers. This announcement demonstrates Sybase iAnywhere's
ability to support new mobile devices shortly after they hit the
market." "Bringing secure enterprise wireless email to the Apple
iPhone brings it one step closer to being able to be used as a
trusted enterprise device," said Stephen Drake, IDC program
director, Mobile Enterprise programs. "Although IDC sees strong
desire for consumers to use the iPhone in corporate settings, it
will require an innovative approach to satisfy the data protection
concerns of IT while leveraging the richness of the native Apple
iPhone client." Availability Information Anywhere wireless email
support for Apple iPhone is expected to be available 1H 2008. For
